Once Upon a Midnight Dreary... treat bag

The bat trio die set is awesome. These are the two smaller bats cut from onyx felt. I'll show the large bat on another treat container coming soon to this blog. :) The skull from Nevermore is gruesomely awesome in bellini cardstock, don't you think? And, popped up on the grape is just striking! The text is stamped in lemon whip on the grape and the orange ink is used with the sentiment on a strip of lichen. The rest is in tuxedo black memento ink.

Do you like the glitter swirls? They're made using the quickie glue pen. Just draw whatever swirl shapes you like - the more uneven the better - and while the glue is still blue (it comes out blue and it dries clear!), add your orange and lime glitter. I did some dots too to add even more glittery wonderfulness! :)

A little washi tape finishes off the project. What do you think? It's a great way to make memorable treat bags for Halloween night!
